US Resumed Aggression against Iran. Woeful Military Incompetence. “Hiding The Scale of American Losses”

Posted on by Leave a comment

Editors Note: I’ve been saying it since the war against Iran begain again in Feb. of this year, that the Pentagon is hiding the casualties of the war in Iran from the American people. They quietly changed the numbers last weekend but I don’t believe those are accurate either, I believe they’re much higher as does the author of this post. We may never know how many Americans have died fighting for fake Israel.

Mystery Babylon America is headed for destruction very soon.

By Drago Bosnik of Global Research. Posted with permission.

American aggression on Iran has once again laid bare deep structural failures in the Pentagon’s strategy, force planning and mission oversight. Instead of a short, decisive “shock & awe” victory we usually see in pathetic Hollywood propaganda,

Washington DC finds itself bleeding personnel, money and exorbitantly expensive precision-guided munitions in ways that weaken its broader power and image while delivering very few (if any) evident strategic gains. The casualty data itself is highly unreliable, but still signals a fundamental miscalculation. According to CNN, by late July at least 18 US soldiers have been killed and 624 wounded since America launched its truly unprovoked aggression against Iran on February 28.

While the figures are nowhere near catastrophic by historical standards, they are (geo)politically significant in a conflict sold as “limited and tightly controlled”. The fact that the Pentagon initially allowed casualty numbers in its own database to decrease before quietly correcting them, and then introduced a vague new “overseas operations” category without clearly linking it to its Iran war, suggests an institutional reluctance to confront or honestly explain the human cost. A government that cannot be straight with its own public about casualties undoubtedly lost sight of institutional (and legal) accountability. Worse yet, the actual irrecoverable casualties could be (and most likely are) exponentially greater.

At the operational level, the war reveals a gaping mismatch between the Trump administration’s ambitions and the capabilities of the US Military Industrial Complex (MIC). As military sources report, the Pentagon wasted over 800 “Patriot” interceptors in just 3-5 days against the Iranian military, rapidly depleting one of the most sophisticated air defense inventories in NATO. Annual production of PAC-3 interceptors is around 600, which is nowhere near enough to replace what was used in about half a week, especially when production is already committed to foreign orders, including for the Kiev regime. The situation is so bad that the US military actually decided to resume purchases of cheaper, but much older and less capable PAC-2 interceptors.

This comes after a 30-year pause in PAC-2 production and signifies that the decision is certainly not a sign of adaptive wit, but an admission that decades of procurement focused exclusively on exorbitantly expensive small batches of supposedly “super-advanced” PAC-3 missiles. It left the US woefully unprepared for a sustained, high-intensity war, especially against a heavily armed country like Iran. Such chronic shortages have triggered cascading strategic compromises. To keep “Patriot” and THAAD batteries across the Middle East operational, Washington DC even suspended arms deliveries to vassals and satellite states around the world and pulled other key systems out of the increasingly contested Asia-Pacific region.

This includes the redeployment of the USS “Tripoli” and its F‑35B-equipped Marine air wing from areas near China to combat operations against Iran, illustrating how the US aggression against Iran is directly eroding American positions in the Asia-Pacific region. For a Pentagon that has repeatedly declared Beijing its “pacing challenge”, stripping offensive assets from the increasingly contested region to fight Tehran is a stark indictment of America’s strategic incoherence. Financially and in terms of readiness, the war looks increasingly self-defeating. War Secretary Pete Hegseth has acknowledged that it already cost nearly $40 billion and is forcing cuts to training unless the US Congress approves tens of billions more in emergency funding.

Just like with attempts to hide the true scale of American losses (both in terms of personnel and military equipment), even those figures likely understate the actual cost of this completely pointless and avoidable war of aggression. Namely, the price tag of interceptors alone almost certainly exceeds official figures, while the infrastructure damage resulting from Iranian retaliatory precision strikes is completely omitted from publicly available reports. The true damage includes dozens of aircraft and technical personnel (and quite possibly even pilots). In the meantime, the US military is cutting flight hours, live-fire exercises and deployments in other hotspots to save funds for continued hostilities with Iran.

Needless to say, this directly undercuts the combat proficiency of pilots and entire units at a time when Chinese aviators are logging more flight hours than ever before. In other words, Washington DC is sacrificing long-term readiness against its most capable rivals to sustain a costly, grinding conflict with a regional power. Just imagine how the Pentagon would fare against global superpowers like Russia and/or China when it continues to suffer one humiliation after another against Iran. Taken together, these developments point to a string of systemic failures, not just tactical, operational, strategic and/or doctrinal miscalculations. All this also demonstrates a massive slump in the quality of American leaders and their ability to make meaningful decisions.

The US political system that keeps obscuring real casualty figures, a procurement philosophy that cannot support major wars against remotely capable opponents and a global strategy that cannibalizes one theater to support forces in another are a true testament of that. American aggression against Iran has not only failed to truly degrade Tehran’s capabilities (key missile bases and stockpiles remain largely intact after months of fighting), but also exposed how fragile US power becomes when rhetoric about “limitless capacity” finally collides with industrial and political reality. It seems no power in the political West (including the US) has learned anything from the NATO-orchestrated Ukrainian conflict.

The Early Warning Signs: How Nano Tech Targets the Mind, Emotions & Will

Posted on by Leave a comment
Glowing blue digital grid dome over a cityscape at night representing network connectivity

Editors Note: to be clear I don’t agree with the author’s position that the nanotechnology in the shots can be detoxed. The changes the technology makes to a persons DNA are permanent as I’ve shown here many times before. I would go as far as to say that anyone who isn’t sealed in Christ is in danger, vaccinated or not!

We have all noticed the changes in people, especially the vaxxed. They seem distant or spaced out, easily agitated or angered (why we see more road rage) and they’re become very aptathetic. Believers in Christ who were vaccinated report no desire to pray anymore and praise and worship feels empty.

Personally I believe we’re in the final stages of the MOTB taking people over and I believe the signal will be given soon. They’ll probably try to normalize it by saying it’s a early warning system test, or an upgrade of some kind. I believe it will be broadcast through the mobile phones since everybody has one.

The reason I’m sharing this article with you is because it explains where we’re at in the nanotechnology timeline. It shows us the stages people went through and are now going through and where this will end up. This is the news that others aren’t speaking about, they’re all caught up in the wars and world events. The MOTB/nanotech inside of the vaxxed is about to be deployed and the world will be caught unaware!

The stages the author is describing are almost identical to what the whistleblowers over at Sara Israel’s blog have been saying about the AI taking them over. You can watch those interviews on Rumble by clicking here.

I’m sharing the blog below because I couldn’t share the link on FB and other places because it’s already being banned.

Prayed up and prepped up! World war Z is coming and nobody is speaking about it! That’s why we’re here!

Oh yeah, my short break is over but things will be different so stay tuned!

Johnny

This is a guide for the progression of changes that will follow as the nano tech activation (2026-2032) takes hold. Below, you will find the signs and symptoms to look for, how to prepare and steps to take to resist.

The nano tech will never be announced on TV headlines or officially awknowledged

This is a classified, top secret project that will never make news headlines or be allowed even in alternative media. You are at “ground zero” of highly censored information. While we have put together various articles confirming the reality of nanotechnology through official sources, the actual project and purpose of it will never officially be confirmed. We have to rely on whistleblowers and various puzzle pieces to see the full picture.

The subtle effects are the desired output, not obvious symptoms.

People around you may seem “fine” while becoming less present, less curious, and less willing to resist what they would have questioned a year ago. The cabal has designed it this way for a reason. Our objective is to identify the symptoms and chart a path as to what can be done to purge the nano tech from our bodies and remain outside of the coming control grid.

What You Must Know

Five points.

  1. The primary target is not the body first – it is attention, emotion, and will. Physical sensations matter, but compliance starts in the mind.
  2. Apathy is the feature, not a side effect. A population that does not care cannot organize.
  3. The early stage is the workable window. Indicators cluster around roughly 2-6 weeks from noticeable activation before deeper “seating.”
  4. Many sub-effects mimic ordinary life. Stress, burnout, depression, and screen fatigue. That cover is useful to the system.
  5. Recognition itself is resistance. Naming the pattern breaks the spell of “this is just how the world is now.” Simply reading this article puts you a step ahead of the side-effects and impact.

The Three Primary Effects

If you only remember three things, remember these.

01 / Mental

Fog & Flattened Thought

Slower recall. Shorter curiosity loops. Difficulty holding complex conceptual models in the mind. “I’ll think about it later” becomes the default.

02 / Emotional

Apathy & Numb Affect

Muted outrage. Thin joy. Reduced grief. Emotional range compresses so moral emergencies feel like the weather or something easy to dismiss.

03 / Volitional

Will & Compliance Drift

Less pushback. More “going along.” Spiritual practices feel optional. The inner “no” gets quieter.

The 2-6 Week Window

Field report: once activation becomes personally noticeable, the practical counter-window is short.

Whistleblower reports say integration during the window can still be countered. After prolonged seating and incubation, purge and detox narratives become far less credible. Do not wait for perfect proof before stabilizing sleep, prayer/meditation discipline, information hygiene, and physical basics, as well as exploring the antidote.

Act while you still have the willpower to act. This article is intended to give you some tools to act upon.

The Activation Stages – An Outline

Stage 0

Distribution / Nano Tech Remains Dormant

Material already in environment and body via food, meds, and related carriers. Little or no physical or emotional change.

Stage 1

Starlink / 6G Ping / Early Activation

Intermittent fog, odd dreams, tingling, mood flatness, attention jitter. Still reversible if met head-on.

Stage 2

Synchronization

Symptoms cluster. Apathy stabilizes. People “change” in tone and priorities. Social mirroring of compliance increases.

Stage 3

Deep Integration

Persistent personality shift, hostile denial of the topic, loss of spiritual appetite, high compliance instinct. Window largely closed per source doctrine.

Stage 4

Grid Capture

Individual effects join system-level AI, wireless, digital ID, and ledger controls. Resistance becomes impossible. The individual is fully “captured” by the nano tech, and fully integrated into the future system. They are not aware of it, and cannot resist something they are not aware of.

FogApathyDreamsTinglingComplianceWill erosion2–6 week window

Deep Briefing: Mechanism, Taxonomy & Field Doctrine

The remainder of this article is intentionally denser. It is for readers who already accept the basic threat model and need vocabulary, differential patterns, and operational framing. Public scientific literature verifies nanotechnology, nanomedicine, nanotoxicology, and wireless biointerface research as real fields. Supporting evidence proves the covert population-wide activation.

The Nano Tech End Game Objective

A control architecture that relies only on external force is expensive and visible. A control architecture that lowers internal resistance is quieter. In the Intel Drop framing, nano-scale material is not merely a toxin narrative – it is an interface layer intended to make human attention, mood, and decision threshold addressable when wireless, AI scoring, and ledger permissions converge via Starlink and 6G.

That is why the primary observable symptom is not dramatic cinema-style “mind control.” It is statistical drift: more flatness, less agency, less sustained focus on adversarial systems, more irritability when the topic is raised, and a slow replacement of conviction with vague fatigue.

Intel indicates psy ops and distractions are in place during the initial activation – focus on Flock cameras, data centers and old mind control tech (Mk-Ultra, crude electronic directed weapons) keep any inkling of the much more advanced nano tech far in the background.

The Five Phases Of Nano Tech Activation

Activation Phase 1 – The beginning stages

At Stage 1 the subject has exposure without a personal narrative of change. This is the most propagandistically useful phase: any later symptoms can be assigned to politics, pandemic aftereffects, economics, or “mental health awareness” in the generic sense. Doctrine implication: do not wait for Stage 1 to feel a dramatic need to address it. Preparation is in habits and clarity, not delayed adrenaline or when panic finally sets in.

Activation Phase 2 – The noisy edge / intermittent spikes

Early activation often presents as non-specific signal: pressure in the head or chest, internal vibration, temperature misperception, hypnagogic imagery, novel dream themes, sudden apathy spikes, or short waves of unmotivated fear/anger that do not match life events. Critically, Stage 2 still usually preserves enough metacognition for the person to say, “this is not fully me.”

Activation Phase 3 – Pattern lock

Stage 3 is when isolated oddities become a syndrome cluster. Family members notice personality change. Language gets slightly off – more slogans, less precision, more hostile shutdown. The person may still work and socialize. Functionality is not proof of freedom. Many captured profiles remain “high functioning” while losing curiosity, emotive patterns or innate personality traits.

Activation Phase 4 – Deep integration / identity rewrite / life-scripting

Sources describe a harder state: the nano-influenced baseline becomes the new self-model. Attempts to present evidence are rejected. The subject may rewrite the past (“I was never into that stuff”). Spiritual slowdown – reduced prayer, scripture, meditation, or meaning-seeking – appears not as dramatic apostasy but as bland indifference. This is why apathy is strategic. Indifference scales.

Activation Phase 5 – External stack connects to the internal state

Here the personal layer is no longer the whole story. Digital identity requirements, payments permissions, AI mediation of news/social graph, and environmental wireless density create a combined picture. The individual joins movements against perceived threats that offer no operational goal, only comforting assurances. Politically, they may remain locked in a paradigm, but they are nothing but a controlled asset without any awareness. By 2030 and beyond, new technologies emerge that the individual finds curious, acceptable and even needed to cope with job loss and economic strife. The nano tech ensures a smooth transition.

Nano Tech Effect Library Of Symptoms

Use this as a checklist vocabulary. Overlap with ordinary illness, grief, vitamin deficiency, thyroid issues, sleep apnea, trauma, and medication effects is real. Rule those out with professionals when appropriate. The point here is pattern recognition under a specific timeline model.

Cognitive

  • Word-finding gaps / tip-of-tongue increase
  • Looping thoughts without resolution
  • Inability to finish books or long essays
  • Losing track mid-sentence more often
  • “Mental static” under mild stress
  • Sudden disinterest in former analytical hobbies
  • Binary, black and white thinking replaces nuanced analysis

Emotional

  • Flat mornings without a sleep deficit explaining it
  • Anhedonia (pleasure breakdown)
  • Disproportionate rage at trivial friction
  • Empathy thinning toward family
  • Emotional overload from newsfeeds
  • Numbness after bad news instead of resolve
  • Shame or mockery reflex when urgency appears

Social

  • Withdrawal framed as “peace”
  • Hostility to former in-group language, community connections
  • Conversation steering away from system or political topics
  • Mimicked mainstream talking points with odd certainty
  • Relationship devaluation without clear conflict
  • Preferring parasocial AI/media to real world friends

Physical / Sensory

  • Tingling, crawls, or “wires” under skin
  • Internal vibration at rest
  • Pressure crowns, sinuses, or chest walls
  • Pulsed tinnitus or tone perception
  • Sleep architecture breaks (3 a.m. waking)
  • New chemical sensitivities
  • Unexplained fatigue waves

Dream / Nocturnal

  • Invasive dream visitors or “training” themes
  • Dreams of installation, insects, grids, antennas
  • False awakening loops, belief one as “ascended”
  • Sexualized or humiliating dream scripts foreign to baseline
  • Waking with residual emotions that feel injected

Spiritual / Meaning

  • Prayer feels “pointless” suddenly
  • Aversion to silence
  • Mockery of faith or conscience language
  • Loss of calling / mission sense
  • Intrusive thoughts experienced as not-self
  • Desire to outsource conscience to institutions

Nano Tech Speech: How It Sounds

Full theatrical nano tech possession – almost in the Hollywood sense – is the wrong mental image. Listen for small linguistic tells under ordinary conversation:

  • “Nothing can be done anyway.”
  • “That stuff is all conspiracy.” (said with sudden finality by someone formerly open)
  • “I’m just focused on myself now.”
  • “Why do you care so much?”
  • “Everything is fine if you don’t look.”
  • Topic is ridiculed in tone before content is addressed.
  • Personal agency talked down; system authority talked up.

Note: Tired people say some of these lines. Nano tech speech is about change from baseline, cluster with other effects, and resistance to private, good-faith evidence.

Why Natural Detox Methods May Not Work

Source doctrine (as presented in Intel Drop material on this project’s sister archive) is blunt:

  • Natural “detox” marketing that promises full purge after deep activation is regarded as unreliable.
  • The meaningful personal counter-window is short once activation is subjectively underway – on the order of weeks, not years.
  • After one to two years of seated, activated incubation, defeating the system with herbs-and-hope alone is not considered credible by those sources.

The practical advice: move early, while agency remains. Sleep, sunlight, prayer/meditation discipline, and reduced digital screentime can help human beings under any adversarial psychological environment, but an actual antidote for the nano tech is likely necessary for a full cleansing.

Editors Note: I have heard personal testimony of people who have spent into the 6 figures trying to detox this stuff. Everything they tried failed.

The Bottom Line – What You Can Do

If you have read this far, you are probably not yet activated by the nano tech and you still have some time. Learn about the efforts of the CBDC Intel team and their access to the cabal’s own antidote – an encrypted sine-wave audio signature that instructs the nano tech to exit the body. Consider joining their team and helping out in the fight against Agenda 2030.

Time is Speeding Up, We Can All Feel It

Posted on by One comment
Dawn mountain monastery, exterior clock, misty valley

Hey everyone I had to post this before it got lost in the shuffle!

You’re not imagining it, time is definitely speeding up and I believe it’s biblical! And unless those days were shortened, no flesh would be saved; but for the elect’s sake those days will be shortened. Matthew 24:22 We are in that time now and we have been for awhile now.

When I think back to when the time-speedup began, it really seemed to accelerate after 2017, but according to the monks, this actually began in 1968!

For me, prior to 2017 a year felt like a year but every since then a year feels like about 6 or 7 months. This year, 2026 seems to be moving especially fast as here we are almost 8 months into it and it feels like its been a blur!

Now there appears to be some evidence to back up what we’re all feeling. Here’s an excerpt from an article I found when researching the other day that says The monks of Mount Athos — who have been using the same hand-made candles for 24 hours for centuries — now find that these candles burn much longer than 24 hours.

Their daily prayers, which always took the same amount of time, now take noticeably longer.

They state it clearly:
1968 = 24 hours
2026 = ±18–19 hours

Something fundamental is changing in the very flow of time

Also In 1968, a Soviet clock shows the seconds passing normally. In 2025, the same clock runs almost TWICE as fast.

Prayed up and prepped up! Time is literally getting shorter!

Going to Enjoy a few days away

Posted on by One comment
Rolling hills covered with morning mist and a rising sun

Hey folks I just wanted to let everyone know that unless something earth shattering happens I’m going to take a few days off. My wife Lisa and I haven’t done much together outside of our home in years due to the severe gut issues I’ve had for awhile. Now that the situation is 95% better we’re going to do some exploring.

It’s also our birthday weekend and we usually try to do something fun during that time. Having my wife’s birthday the day after mine is nice and it means I won’t forget and get in trouble lol. I’ll be hitting 59 this year, one year away from hitting the weird 60s. I say that because people tell me hitting 60 feels weird, so I’ll go with it.

It may also be one of the last chances we get to do something while it’s still relatively calm, which can change at any moment as we all know. It would be nice to take a weeks long vacation but that’s not affordable for us these days. Actually we haven’t done anything like that sine 2014.

Have a blessed weekend and remember to take some time to enjoy what you can with those you love!

Netanyahu Admits that Section 219 of the NDAA was his idea…

Posted on by Leave a comment

As if we didn’t already know this but there it is, straight from the horses mouth. The merging of the US military and the IDF was Bibis idea.

For those of you who don’t have X here is what the post says.

Benjamin Netanyahu admits that his plan to merge the Pentagon and the Israeli military will be forced upon Americans.

The House has just passed the NDAA.

This provision merges U.S. and Israeli defense technology across AI, cyber, weapons, and supply chains Netanyahu called it HIS idea.

EU Nations Close Embassies in Tehran, Ukraine Negotiations Fail

Something wicked this way comes. Trump says he’s going to hit Iran with a “massive” attack and the UK, France, Germany have closed their embassies or ceased operations (same difference) and rumor has it Turkey is following suit. We shall see.

Also US Sec. of State Rubio says that the “Anchorage negotiations have failed” between the US and Russia. I would expect that war to escalate as well.

Congress Blocks Debate: Section 219 of the NDAA Remains Intact

Posted on by Leave a comment
Lightning bolt hitting Washington Monument at night in Washington DC

America is done. This puts the final nail in the coffin of it’s sovereignty, it’s all over but the crying. America you are now owned by Israel and the bankers lock, stock and barrel.

Congress BLOCKED its own members from even voting on the plan to merge U.S. and Israeli military supply chains… -The House rules committee refused to allow a vote on the amendment challenging Section 219, the NDAA provision integrating American military technology and supply chains with Israel’s -Massie’s account: “No debate or vote was allowed on section 219, integration of US military technology and supply chains with Israel’s” -Khanna: “We do not even have the chance to vote in the House to stop Israel and the United States from co-producing weapons.

We need to now fight to strip this amendment in the conference between the House and the Senate” -The provision advances as the $38 billion aid era winds toward its 2028 “partnership” replacement, and after the House rejected Massie’s separate aid-cut amendment 314-104 Whatever one thinks of integration itself, this process is indefensible.

Binding American defense production to any foreign state, ally or not, is exactly the kind of sovereignty question the House exists to debate, and the rules committee answered it by forbidding the debate. A measure confident of its merits wins a floor vote; a measure smuggled past one admits it can’t.

Trump Says Salafi Head Choppers in Syria will Disarm Hezbollah

Posted on by Leave a comment

Ahmed al-Sharaa’s jihadi terrorists no match for Hezbollah.

By Kurt Nimmo at Global Research.

Ahmed al-Sharaa, aka Abu Mohammad al-Jolani, is a gentleman, according to the President of the United States. We get along very well with the president of Syria,” Trump said. “I wouldn’t be surprised if this gentleman’s going to do a job just like that. He’s done a very good job.”

The job Trump has in mind is going up against Hezbollah in Lebanon.

“He would like to come in and do something with Hezbollah,” Trump continued during a press conference with Lebanese President Joseph Aoun. “They’ve been fighting—he’s been fighting Hezbollah for a long time. I think it’d be very effective.”

Syria is no match for Hezbollah. It remains in disarray following the civil war engineered and financed by the United States, its European allies, and Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. Jabhat al-Nusra, also known as the al-Nusra Front, was a Sunni jihadist group that emerged in Syria during the civil war. It quickly became one of the most formidable rebel factions opposing the Syrian government.

Syria’s Jolani was Leader of al-Qaeda Offshoot

Jolani, Trump’s “gentleman,” was the emir of al-Nusra Front, later Jabhat Fatah al-Sham. In 2013, during the Syrian civil war, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, head of the Islamic State in Iraq, announced al-Nusra Front was “part of al-Qaeda,” according to the BBC. The jihadist paramilitary group aimed to overthrow the government of Bashar al-Assad and establish an Islamic state based on Sharia law.

According to Amnesty International and other human rights groups, al-Nusra Front is responsible for serious war crimes, including abductions, torture, and summary executions. Jolani’s group, while designated as terrorist by the US, nonetheless “received weapons, cash, and logistical support via CIA-vetted programs in Jordan and Turkey, blending seamlessly with so-called Free Syrian Army units,” writes Omid Souresrafil.

“Jolani maintained his allegiance to al-Qaeda,” according to News18. “From the beginning, he prioritized winning Syrian support, distancing himself from IS’s brutality and stressing on a more pragmatic approach to jihad.”

He began his career at Camp Bucca, the US internment camp in Iraq, described as an incubator that programmed jihadists. The camp was a critical node in the military intelligence network established in Iraq during the US occupation.

John Kiriakou, a former CIA officer who went to prison for exposing CIA torture, “has now said publicly what many of us have long argued: Jolani is, in all likelihood, a CIA asset,” Kevork Almassian writes. In 2012, the Obama administration commissioned Operation Timber Sycamore, an effort by the CIA to arm, fund, and train rebel groups in Syria, including Jolani’s al-Nusra Front.

Operation Timber Sycamore

“Abu Mohammad al-Jolani did not ascend to the presidency of Syria by accident,” Cyrus Nezakat posted to X. “He is the direct product of Operation Timber Sycamore’s success; a program that helped engineer the fall of the Assad regime by channeling support to al-Nusra, the al-Qaeda splinter group he himself founded.”

On July 21, Kan News and other sources reported Syria was making contingency plans, including “potential cross-border military action,” against Hezbollah. Fox News reported Trump as saying “Israel is incapable to deal with Hezbollah, I am close to giving this task to Syria because he would do a more precise job.”

Trump may or may not know of the division between the Sunni and Shia branches of Islam. Sunni Salafist Muslims consider the Shia and Syrian Alawite as apostates. Jabhat al-Nusra regarded the Shia as sectarian adversaries instead of a protected community, exhibited by anti-Shia rhetoric, assaults on Shia civilians, and acts of violence directed at Shia religious sites and leaders.

However, if Trump believes a CIA and State Department proxy in Damascus has the ability to confront Hezbollah, he probably is not receiving a fair assessment from his Israel-first advisors on the military strength of Hezbollah.

Syria No Match for Hezbollah

Hezbollah, widely regarded as one of the most proficient non-state armed groups in West Asia, boasts an estimated 40,000 to 50,000 active combatants, complemented by a reserve force of 30,000 to 50,000. Its combat experience, well-defined command structure, Iranian support, and substantial weapons stockpile collectively render it more formidable than a typical militia. In 2026, Reuters reported that Hezbollah has persisted in its rearming efforts and adaptation to losses, including a shift back towards guerrilla-style operations.

In addition to a large number of combatants, Hezbollah possesses one of the world’s largest non-state arsenals. This arsenal is centered around tens of thousands of rockets and missiles, supplemented by drones, anti-ship and air-defense systems, and extensive light infantry weapons. As of early 2026, Hezbollah’s rocket and missile holdings were estimated to be around 11,000–13,000. However, prior to the recent war, in 2024, it was estimated that Hezbollah had between 120,000 and 200,000 missiles.

Finally, Hezbollah acquired significant combat experience in Syria by engaging with ISIS and various insurgent groups in collaboration with the Assad regime, particularly during border and mountainous operations in areas such as Qalamoun, Aleppo, Homs, and Damascus. This experience enhanced its battlefield coordination, small-unit tactics, and capacity to function in an extended multi-front conflict.

In contrast, Syria shows military effectiveness in limited internal campaigns, yet it has not reached a level of full professionalism, unity, or stability as a national military entity. The force is still in the process of being constructed from a mix of former rebel factions and defectors, which results in ongoing issues with cohesion and command discipline. It is capable of applying pressure on weaker local adversaries, but encounters with Syrian Defense Forces in Aleppo and the northeast reveal its struggles against a more organized and determined opponent, such as Hezbollah.

Rubio Admits Syria Incapable of Disarming Hezbollah

The Trump administration may have backed off its desire to use Syria to go up against Hezbollah. Rubio, speaking at the ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) summit in Manila, has signaled that Syria is not up to the task.

“The Syrian authorities are not big fans of Hezbollah, but what we’ve encouraged Syria to do is to focus on its own internal challenges and building a nation-state,” said the Secretary of State.

The internal situation in Syria is both fragile and unstable. The transitional government following the overthrow of Assad is attempting to strengthen its authority while contending with renewed conflicts in the northeast, ongoing jihadist operations, and intermittent bombings in Damascus. Additionally, the nation is grappling with issues of displacement, inadequate services, and profound political distrust that spans across sectarian and regional divides.

WAR EXPANDS! Houthis in Yemen Close off Bab El Mandeb Strait to Saudi Arabia’s Oil

World map cracked by falling oil barrels and market decline charts

The shock to the world’s oil marets continues as the Houthis in Yemen announced the closure of the Bab El Mandeb Strait. Saudi Arabia exports about 4.5 million barrels per day via the Strait.

From the article over at Winepress News: As the war in Iran continues to escalate with no end in sight, the global energy situation has worsened after the Houthis in Yemen have formally announced that they will be seizing control of the Strait of Bab el-Mandeb located in the Red Sea; another critical trade and shipping route through which close to 10% of international petroleum and energy resources are shipped.

Also the US is looking to intensify the war and bomb more infrastructure in Iran, to which the Iranians replied that in that event Israel would be struck as well. Here’s more from Hal Turner. Estimates in Israel: Trump will significantly increase the intensity of the attacks.

The assessment: Targeting sites of infrastructure and prominent Iranian figures will lead to Iran opening fire on Israel.

 Netanyahu held a security meeting that lasted 6 hours today. As of about 4:00 PM Eastern US Time today, at least six (6) U.S. Air-Refueling Tankers took-off out of Israel heading east toward the Persian Gulf.

We shall soon see what happens next. Stay ready, prayed up and prepped up!
